Installation and programming manual
6.10 Connecting the Mains
The switching power supply module (housed inside the box under the motherboard) provides the power
source to the entire system and recharges the batteries.
The panel must be connected to a separate line on the electrical switch board. The line must be protected
by a fire code compliant sectioning device.
The protective earthing system must be compliant with the local safety regulations, fire code, laws and
bylaws in force.
6.10.1 Technical specifications
• Primary power source: 230 V ac (-15% + 10%) 50/60 Hz.
• Panel current draw: 0.5 A (max)
6.10.2 Wiring
Figure 22 - Connecting the Mains
Danger: Switch Off the mains power.
1. Connect the wires to the terminal board [A] of the power supply.
2. Using a plastic cable tie, secure the cable to the hook [B] on the back of the control panel.
Attention: Wiring circuits must not be commingled without proper separation. Adhere to the connection
wiring in the diagram.
6.11 Connecting the batteries
The panel box provides housing for two 12 V-7 Ah lead batteries. The two batteries must be connected in
series, in such way as to provide a 24 V current.
Using the battery terminal eyelet wire (included), insert the battery terminal bolt through the washer and
battery terminal eyelet. The actual connection must be completed during initial powerup of the control
panel (refer to paragraph 7.3).
The batteries are the secondary power supply of the system. Once powered up, the panel will charge and
monitor the batteries automatically. The battery monitoring process is as follows:
• Efficiency test
The panel checks the efficiency of the batteries by simulating load current demand at regular 60 second
intervals. If the batteries fail to meet the load current demand, the event will be signaled on the
Battery disconnected fault LED.
• Battery level test
In the event of mains failure, the panel continuously monitors the battery voltage. If it drops below 22.8
V, the panel will signal the event on the
Low Battery LED. The event will end when the voltage restores
to 24.6 V.
• Deep discharge shutdown
If a mains failure event lasts for a long period, and battery voltage drops below 18 V, the panel will
shutdown the batteries automatically in order to avoid irreparable damage.
